Taking the Anarchist Circus to Genoa

Wish I could get to Genoa -- donations? But I was wondering if anyone has thought to co-opt Tony Blair's bozo statement and create a true travelling Anarchist Circus?
Just imagine: jugglers juggling $ (euros?), trick cyclists, acrobats, mimes, harlequins, clowns. . . .
Don't forget the ringmaster.
My contribution from across the Atlantic. Be brave. Don't forget to dance.

Why not come to Campsfield Detention centre i

27.06.2001 11:39

If you can't raise the cash for getting to Genoa (and getting back!) why not come to the actions against Campsfield Detention Centre.

Campsfield House (6 miles from Oxford) is the UK's flagship Immigration Detention Centre. All of its inmates are escaping from oppressive states (know any other kind?) like Iraq, Turkey and Afghanistan. It was opened in 1993 and is run for profit by the private security firm Group 4.

A No Borders-style camp will be opened on July 18th: actions will take place to coincide with the G8 summit in Genoa. Free the prisoners! Smash detention!

Diverse actions against Campsfield detention centre are also being planned by a variety of groups, including a CARNIVAL AGAINST CAMPSFIELD including samba bands, community and refugee support groups, world musicians, circus performers and theatre..BUT HEY this could be a travelling circus too!

Wednesday 18 July
Arrive @ Campsfield on Wednesday 18th July to help set up camp - email us to help plan for numbers - especially if you have access to kitchen equipment, tents, yurts, large marquees, food, water or can help in any other way.
Email  g8campsfield@hotmail.com.

Thursday 19 July
Workshops / teach-ins on tactics, equipment, group movement, breaching fences, banner-making, getting your affinity group sorted etc.

Friday 20 July
Diverse actions around Campsfield Detention Centre

Saturday 21 July
CARNIVAL AGAINST CAMPSFIELD to demonstrate our diversity and creativity: bring your drums, horns and whistles to make some noise! Circus anyone?
PLUS
THE SIEGE OF CAMPSFIELD: actions to close the shithole and free the prisoners. Bastille Day-stylee prison destruction and white overalls fun expected. Bring siege equipment and helmets.

la luche sigue!
